The move brings 37 agents to Real, expands its presence across Florida and sets the stage for the team’s expansion into New York, serving all five boroughs.Led by Matt Clayton, Clayton Coastal Group is on pace to close nearly $300 million in real estate transactions this year, after building a highly successful business fueled by social media, digital marketing and a focus on serving out-of-town buyers. Clayton personally closes approximately $50 million in annual transaction volume.Get the latest headlines, breaking news and columns.By signing up you consent to receive the above newsletter from Postmedia Network Inc.A welcome email is on its way.

We’re excited to welcome Matt and his team and support their continued growth from Florida into New York and beyond.”Clayton’s path to real estate was unconventional. He spent 18 years working as an air traffic controller while he and his wife bought, renovated and flipped houses. In 2024, he made the decision to become a full-time real estate agent, selling $20 million in his first 12 months and growing his team from two agents into a 37-agent organization.Today, Clayton has leveraged social media to build a powerful personal brand and a business that reaches consumers far beyond the markets where his team operates. His content-driven approach has helped the team connect with buyers who are often making significant moves from out of state or purchasing a second home in Florida.Clayton said Real’s national platform and ability to support expansion into new markets were key factors in his decision to join the company. With Real’s presence in all 50 states, the move will enable Clayton Coastal Group to expand its business into New York.“I’ve always believed that our opportunity is much bigger than one market,” said Clayton. “Real gives us the platform and the freedom to build a national business while continuing to do what we do best: leverage social media to create relationships and take great care of our clients and our agents.”Real is a real estate experience company working to make life’s most complex transaction simpler. The fast-growing company combines essential real estate, mortgage and closing services with powerful technology to deliver a seamless, end-to-end homebuying experience guided by trusted agents. Real supports more than 36,000 agents who use its digital brokerage platform and tight-knit professional community to build forward-thinking businesses. With a presence in all 50 states across the U.S. and Canada, Real is part of Real REMAX Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: REAX), a global real estate company with 180,000+ agents, more than 100,000 of whom are based in the U.S. and Canada, and a presence in over 120 countries and territories.
